I am going to try to make it to this one. I have never been steelhead fishing and I have to get together a rod and reel outfit. Not sure exactly sure when I will get there or how long I will be there. I will probably camp out.

Csoult, anything in the 6-9 weight range will be serviceable for steelhead, preferably in the 9-10 foot length range. If you don't want to commit to a new outfit, I'd be happy to hook you up with an outfit I'm not using while you are at the jam.

Alby, that is extremely kind but I think I am going to get a fairly inexpensive outfit just because if I somehow broke yours I would feel horrible. Also, if I use yours then you might expect me to take it easy on you in fantasy football.

Any other recommendations on a Hotel. The Sunset is book except for one smoking room that I can't handle. Plus apparently there is a big dog show that weekend the reason its booked up. Can you say "A whoooo" all night long.

"...This past weekend brought a number of fronts through the area with ominous skies and rough lake conditions. Boaters were few and far between. On the plus side, night time temperatures have been dropping which should help the steelhead migration along. A few steelhead have been caught at daybreak along the wall at the Walnut Creek Access Area but the definitive word is few. A small pod of fish has been observed off and on in the Walnut Creek Channel and there are actually a few fish that have made it upstream to the project waters. Be advised, this is not the starting gun of the season, but it is an indication that conditions are starting to change and a few fish are starting the day break exploratory runs. The tribs are exceptionally low and clear..."
